Marshall's Pfeffernusse German Cookies

 Ingredients:

1 3/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
8 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 large egg yolk
1 tsp finely chopped orange zest
1/2 cup confectioners sugar

1. Preheat oven to 350C. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper ( the most difficult part for him!)
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and pepper.
3. In a large bowl, combine the butter and brown sugar- mix at medium speed until well blended.
4. Add the honey, egg yolk, and zest.  Mix until well blended.
5. With an ice cream scoop, place balls of dough on the cookie sheet, press lightly to flatten slightly.
6. Bake until the edges are light brown, about 14 minutes. Remove from oven and sift confectioners sugar on top of cooled cookies.


Perfect served with tea, OR with Port for the adults...


one we bought on our travels... great Port.
